Verse1

Where was I? I forgot the point that I was making

I said if I was smart that I would save up for a piece of string

 And a rock to wind the string around

Pre Chorus 1:

Everybody wants a rock to

Wind a piece of string around

Everybody wants a rock to

Wind a piece of string around

Chorus

Throw the crib door wide

Let the people crawl inside

Someone in this town

Is trying to burn their playhouse down

They want to stop the ones who want

A rock to wind a string around

But everybody wants a rock to

Wind a piece of string around

Throw the crib door wide

Let the people crawl inside

Someone in this town

Is trying to burn their playhouse down

They want to stop the ones who want

A rock to wind a string around

But everybody wants a rock to

Wind a piece of string around

Verse 2

If I were a carpenter, I'd hammer on my piglet

I'd collect the seven dollars and I'd buy a big

prostetic forehead and Wear it on my real head

Everybody wants prosthetic

Foreheads on their real heads

Everybody wants prosthetic

Foreheads on their real heads

Chorus 2

Throw the crib door wide

Let the people crawl inside

Someone in this town

Is trying to burn their playhouse down

They want to stop the ones who want

Prosthetic foreheads on their heads

But everybody wants prosthetic

Foreheads on their real heads

Chorus

Throw the crib door wide

Let the people crawl inside

Someone in this town
